Also known as "Mother Nature's Neosporin"

I've been studying herbs for over 7 years and BY FAR... dandelion is my favorite!! It's definitely NOT a weed like most people think, it's one of Mother Nature's most powerful healers! It has anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and anti-bacterial properties making it both a powerful infection fighter and surprisingly effective pain-reliever! It's a natural anti-histamine that's also packed with vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants... making it exceptional for skin rejuvination, cell regeneration and general wound healing!

  WHAT'S ALL THE FUSS ABOUT? The intense anti-inflammatory properties of dandelion hit the sting and itch of bug bites immediately, it speeds up the healing process of cuts, scrapes, burns and sunburns, and when used daily like a lotion... it even knocks out monthly breast tenderness FOR REAL. My teens for use it for acne and I've used it nightly for YEARS as an eye cream! We also use it for rashes, diaper rash, dry patches, and works wonders on most irritating skin conditions. It's a super healing, super soothing all-purpose skin salve. If Mother Nature ever made Neosporin with a punch - THIS is it!

A NOTE ABOUT MY SALVES:

My salves are released in small homemade batches after a special (and proprietary) infusion process that took me 6 years to develop! My goal is to move as much of the natural medicinal goodness as I can from the herbs into the oil... and the result is a whole line of salves that have been uniquely currated to be surprisingly effective! In our home, we grab a salve before we EVER pop a pill!

 ABOUT DANDELION FLOWERS: Dandelions are full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants making them a crusader against free radicals and powerful fighters for cellular health and skin recovery. They are also anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, analgesic and are a natural anti-histamine - which is why when used as a salve, it's particularly AMAZING for calming bug bites and stings! It can reduce redness, reduce itching, decrease flakiness and speed up recovery time of many irritating skin conditions.

  ABOUT CALENDULA FLOWERS: Calendula flowers have antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties that make it useful in healing wounds, soothing eczema, and relieving diaper rash. It's also used as an antiseptic, can help calm redness, reduces inflammation and can ease skin discomfort. It's skin-loving properties make it an excellent addition to any skin soothing salve!

  ABOUT LAVENDER: Besides its divine aroma, it's widely know for its anti-microbial properties and has been used for centuries to fight infection. It's full of anti-oxidants which contribute to it's ability to speed the healing of burns, cuts and wounds by accelerating skin re-generation. It's a natural pain reliever and reduces inflammation!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

• WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE? The shelf life of the oil in the salve is 1-2 years. However, to enjoy its medicinal benefits the most, I recommend using within a year.
  
  
• HOW MUCH SALVE SHOULD I USE? In general, consider using a "small glop" the size of a pump or two of lotion and apply over the affected area 2-3x daily as needed (use less if it's a tiny area, of course)! In general, a minor topical skin issue will use much less salve than a joint or muscle issue where you are massaging the salve in. See my website or check your product label for specific application recommendations.
  
  
• ARE SALVES SAFE FOR BABIES & SENSITIVE SKIN? I haven't conducted FDA approved clinical trials, so I can't label my salves as "for sensitive skin" or "baby safe." But, I can tell you MANY of my close friends and family use my salves on themselves and their families OFTEN & REGULARLY with great success and confidence. Just like with ANY new skin care product, there is always a potential for allergies or irritation... so test a small area first before using regularly or on a larger area. If you have KNOWN allergies, take note of the ingredient list provided on each label. And, of course, discontinue use if any kind of reaction or irritation occurs. Salves with menthol crystals, camphor, peppermint and eucalyptus are NOT intended for young children and babies.
  
  
• A NOTE ABOUT CONSISTENCY: Depending on the temperatures where you live, your salve will arrive with a general consistency between a neosporin-type oinment and a slightly firm vaseline. Softness of the salve will vary based on your particular climate and seasonal temperature. Since the salve contains beeswax, avoid leaving in a hot car or in the sun to prevent melting. Your tin will be shrink wrapped to prevent any dripping if it does happen to soften during transit. If melting does occur, simply put it in the refrigerator to return it to its normal consistency.
